MOVER NOTECARDS & DANCER NUMBERS

A question was posted in group chat last night asking "Can someone tell me how movers can change numbers on their own?"  Someone else said it happened to them as well.  And the questioner said it wasn't the first time it had happened to her.  

The simple answer is, Movers do not change their dancer numbers by themselves.  

There is no function, no action, nothing at all in LSL scripts that can modify the contents of a notecard in an object's or an avatar's inventory.  

Likely causes to make you THINK they did:

• The notecard didn't save correctly due to lag on the sim but you thought it did.
• You changed the hover text instead of the dancer number in the notecard (@text instead of @spot_dancer #)
• Movers are incorrect inside the rezzer.  You inadvertently put the wrong movers in your rezzer, or took the wrong ones from inventory.
• Putting 3rd party scripts in the movers could make them not behave correctly - but that would not change the dancer number.
• Double movers rezzed in exact same location.
• Multiple copies of the rezzer in your inventory and perhaps one that is not the final is used
• Rollback on a sim if while your set rezzer is rezzed
• The proper movers are rezzed but you can't see them because they are in a different location (not using Stage Manager or Stage Marker)
• Multiple movers rezzed in the same location - if you sit on a mover and still see one under your feet, you have two or more rezzed in that exact spot.

There are probably plenty of more reasons or a combination of reasons, but none of them would be from Movers changing their own dancer numbers.
